I have just taken delivery of a new (made in Canada) silver EXL-Navi and am thrilled with it. The only bad things I have noticed are: -
Unimportant - the poor quality cover over the compartment that houses the jack and related tools.
More important - an occasional rattling from the engine just before it upshifts, especially noticeable when going uphill. To my uneducated ear this sounds like pinging (detonation) such as that you'd get by putting low octane gas in an engine that needs mid or premium grade. When I picked the car up, the dealer, umprompted, made a point of telling me that regular grade (87 octane) was all that was needed. Is this the problem or am I hearing something different?
Regards to all.
